"He said he'd be here in fifteen minutes, it's been an hour." said a tall boy with rose blonde hair as he paced around the room worriedly. 

"Calm down Namjoon, I'm sure he's fine." said the platinum blonde boy from the couch, lazily watching the other pace. 

"The snow started coming down harder, what if he had an accident and can't call for help? He said his phone was dying."

"Hyung, I'm sure he's fine." said a short golden blonde from the kitchen table. Just then there was banging coming from the front door, as if being kicked. The kicking got louder and a familiar voice was heard demanding to be let in. The blonde jumped up from the table and ran to open the door.

"Jin hyung!" The boy was shocked to see his hyung carrying a boy covered in bruises in his arms. He stepped back to let them in, quickly shutting the door against the cold.


When Namjoon heard Jimin say Jin's name he immediately sighed in relief. "Baby where have you b-" his eyes widened as Jin walked in carrying a boy that had clearly been beaten. "What happened!?"

"I'll explain later, we need to take care of him first. Jimin," he said, turning to the short blonde, "please prepare the guest room. Hoseok", he turned to the red head standing just inside the living room," get the first aide kit." He looked down at the boy. "We need to get him out of these wet clothes, we don't need him getting sick on top of his injuries." Jin then turned his attention to Namjoon. "Namjoon you two are around the same size, please get him some of your dry clothes."

Hoseok had returned with the first aide kit just as Jimin came downstairs.

"Hyung, the guest room is ready." 

"Thanks, Hoseok please follow me."  Jin shifted the boy gently in his hold and headed for the stairs. "Oh! Yoongi, Tae, Jimin, can you bring the groceries in?" After receiving an affirmative from the other's, he slowly made his way upstairs, Hoseok following after him, first aide kit in hand.

----------

Once inside the room Jin immediately set to work. "Hoseok help me get these wet clothes off."

The red head nodded and set the first aide kit on the bedside table before helping Jin undress the boy. Namjoon walked into the room, fresh clothes in hand, to find them struggling to undress the boy who was still being held in Jin's arms. He placed the clothes on the bed and went to help.

"Why don't you lay him down to change him?" he asked Jin as he helped to support the boy under his arms while Hoseok removed his socks, shoes and pants.

"Because if we laid him down in these wet, filthy clothes, the bed will get filthy and wet, which will soak through his clean clothes, defeating the purpose of changing him in the first place."

Namjoon just nodded in response as it did make sense. Once Hoseok had the boy dressed in Namjoon's borrowed pajama bottoms they laid him on the bed. Jin opened the first aide kit and started tending to the boy.

----------

Hoseok came dowstairs, holding the wet, dirty and torn clothes of their unexpected house guest and threw them away as they were beyond saving any way.

"Hyung, you know what happened? Who the boy is?"

"Is he my birthday present?" Tae asked. Jimin, Yoongi and Hoseok looked at him weirdly before Hoseok shook his head and turned to Jimin.

"No, but Jin hyung said he'll explain when he's done with him."

The platinum blonde, Yoongi, spoke. "He's just a kid."

"Jin hyung said it looks worse than it is. A lot of bruises, a busted lip, but no broken bones. At least he doesn't think so. Won't know for sure til the kid wakes up."  Hoseok responded.

Just then Jin and Namjoon entered the kitchen  where everyone seemed to gather. Though it was late, he was hungry and he was sure the other's were too. Plus, it was still Taehyung's birthday and he did promise to make his favorite meal. He began gathering what he needed in preparation for dinner. It was silent in the kitchen, with the exception of pots and pans being moved around. 

"Jin hyung."

Jin sighed at Yoongi saying his name. He was still in shock over what happened. God. What if the guy is dead, he didn't even check to see if the guy was still alive, he just left him laying in the snow, but all he could think about at the time was the boy upstairs. After taking a moment to gather his thoughts be began to tell them everything.
